The information in this statement is preliminary and subject to change
pending final review of the event and publication in NWS storm data.

The National Weather Service has confirmed straight-line wind damage off of
state route 772 in Buchanan in Pike County Ohio. Three mobile homes were
knocked off their foundation, picked up and lifted 20 yards, and completely
destroyed. The roof of one mobile home was carried approximately 50 yards in
the same direction. Two additional mobile homes remained on their foundation
and sustained minor damage. Approximately five trees were also uprooted.
Damage in this case was determined to be straight-line. Indications were
that all of the structures were blown consistently to the southeast. The
mobile homes were subject to high winds, located at the summit of a hill in
an open field. This allowed strong thunderstorm winds to lift the mobile
homes off their foundations. Damage was consistent with estimated winds of
105 mph and equated to high end EF1 tornado damage.
